David Lawrence: Yeah, see the wider that glass is, that mother glass is which is what the screen is made from the wider that is the harder it is to keep from shattering, from cracking, from stressing, from flexing. So I guess --.

Jeff: Would it be okay then to put like a piece of something between the keyboard and screen when it* closed?

David Lawrence: That*s okay. That*s more about scratching the screen than it is breaking the screen. It*s usually the torsion or the flexing of the screen or if it really gets bounced hard and it smacks against the back of the top of the laptop. But then these are designed specifically to be in you know airplane baggage and being in bouncy, bouncy trucks and whatnot. So I really wouldn*t worry about it all that much. I don*t think there is any advantage to be, in fact you can never you can never tell. I mean say you take your briefcase right and you slip it into the seat beside you, you know when out in the cab. Next time around you will throw it on the, you don*t throw it please but you gently place it on the seat flat. I mean you know it doesn*t really matter. But it*s an interesting question to ask and it*s not about the hard drive, it*s not about the CD or the you know obviously you don*t want dongles hanging off of it because that might get broken. But it*s all about keeping the glass in good shape and that*s usually what goes on a laptop not other components due to stress.

Jeff: Okay.

David Lawrence: Alright.

Jeff: I really appreciate it.

David Lawrence: I thank you very much for listening to the show, thank you. 180039 online, 18003966546. James you are on Online Tonight with David Lawrence, hello sir.

David Lawrence: Thank you.

James: I have got a quick question. I have got a bunch of files just they can be personal. I am trying to back them up and the minimum it takes like 20 minutes just to back these things up. Is there like another way that I can more quickly back up?

David Lawrence: How are you backing them up, to what?

James: Well I am tacking a CD-RW CD and just putting all my files and sending up to that D drive and then but it takes like 20 minutes.
